ALEXA'S POV:

Uh oh!! Daniel is here, he looks pissed. What am I going to do? What if he starts a fight? Ugh! I wish the earth would just open and swallow me. Hey, hold on, why am I freaking out? We are not together anymore

"What the fuck is going on here?" He growled at me

"Daniel, what are you doing here?" I stood in front of Phil who hasn't said a word since

"Who are you and what are you doing in my wife's house?" He stalked towards Phil and I blocked him

"Excuse you, I'm not your wife anymore." I said pointing at his chest

"Um, Alexandra I'll be in the living room if you need me" Phil said heading inside

"She doesn't need you" Daniel shouted at Phil's retreated back

"What are you doing here?" I asked again

"What is that..... that person doing in your house?" He glared at me

"That person, happens to be my boyfriend" ok I lied, I don't know why but it just came out before I could stop the words

"What?" He asked looking surprised

"You heard me, I said he's my boyfriend. You got a problem with that?" I arched my brows, folding my hands across my chest

"Yes I got a problem with that, you are my fucking wife" I winced at the loudness of his voice

"Ex wife, we are not together anymore" I corrected

"Maybe you are forgetting something but you and I didn't get divorce so technically, I'm still your husband" my body started shaking with anger

"You lost the right to be my husband long ago" I yelled and everything went still, the only sound heard was that of crickets outside "I have move on and it's time for you to come to terms with it"

"I.... I don't .... und..erst..and" he whispered

"We are over Daniel" I stated feeling a heavy pain in my chest

"Don't you love me anymore?" He held my hands and I shook my head

"No, I don't" he shook his head disbelievingly

"No, no I don't believe you" he held me close to himself and before i could protest, he slammed his lips on mine.

I stood still, tempted to kiss him back but I knew he was trying to prove a point but I can't, I can't let him know how much he still means to me. I bit down on his lips and he immediately let go of me

"I don't love you anymore" I spat at him making my eyes teary Immediately I said that, the sound of Dawn's loud cry interrupted the argument

I quickly rushed inside with Daniel behind me. I saw Phil carrying dawn and trying to persuade her as she screamed her lungs out. I walked over to them and faced Daniel

"What the fuck have you done to my baby?" Daniel growled, stalking towards Phil but I blocked him

"Stop it Daniel, just stop ok." I walked over to Phil and stood with him, and held his hand  "see, my family is complete Mr Clemonte. I don't need you anymore" I put on my fake serious face. He looked shocked and broken.

His eyes was wide as he stared at the three of us. He gave a weak smile, turning to leave

"I'll come back Alexa, I'm not giving up on us just yet" those were his last words before he left my house and I slipped on the floor again crying like a mad woman

"Alexandra" Phil held my shoulder as I cried. He had to persuade dawn before going to place her in her cot. "Why are you crying now?" He sat next to me on the floor

"I don't know Phil, it just hurts so much" I sobbed as he pulled me closer and I cried on his shoulder

"Do you still love him?" There was no doubt that I do, heck I don't even know why I'm treating him this way and causing myself so much pain

"I... I.... I" he nod his head in realization "I don't want to be with him because I'm scared, what if one day he wakes up and changes again? I won't be able to take it"

"If you don't want to be with him anymore, then marry me" my eyes shot up as I stared at him in shock

"What?" I whispered

"Yes marry me and then you can be free from this burden. You know I would never treat you the way he did"

"I.. I don't" he held my face before I could complete the statement

"Just think about it, ok?" He asked, raising his brows

"Ok" I muttered.

So after Philip let, I was in a state of dilemma, who do I go for? The one I love or the one that loves me. I sat in Dawn's room, watching her sleep as I compared the pros and cons of both of them.

I really need my best friend right now so I called Suzzy to come over "hey Suz" I said in a low voice

"Sup boo, it's past ten already and that's past your bedtime. Why are you still up?"

"Can you please come over? I really need you right now" my voice shaking

"What's wrong bunny boo?" Worry evident on her voice

"Please come, I beg you" I heard shuffling in the background, she was waking Ethan and telling him to take care of Ash if he wakes up

"I'll be there in 10 ok" I nodded before hanging up. I coiled in my sofa, waiting for her to come.

Ten minutes later like she said, she came and I ran into her arms and hugged her. I started crying all over again and she cooed at my ear

"Come on, let's go upstairs to your room" she said. When we got to my room, she sat beside me on my bed "what's wrong?"

"Phil asked me to marry him and Daniel was also here trying to make me go back to him" I said

"Then why are you acting this way?" I look at her, to see her peering at me

"Because I don't know who to choose, either way, I'm going to hurt someone." Thunder struck and heavy wind started blowing outside

"You should choose who you love and who you want to be with because in the end, it's your happiness that truly matters" the wind was getting stronger and rain started pouring as well

"I'm so scared I might make the wrong decision" I got up and went to Dawn's room across mine to check if she's alright or has woken up due to the loud thunder. She was lying on her belly, with her thumb in her mouth and her bum pushed out. I smiled at the sight

"That's all that matters" Suzzy said from behind me "the person who can make you happy and take good care of your baby is who you should go for Alex. Just think and decide, I'll support your decision irrespective of who it might be" I hugged her and the thunder struck loudly outside. It began pouring heavily

"Alexa!!!!" I heard my name being called. I looked at Suzzy in confusion and she shrugged. We both went back to my room and I heard the shouting again

I looked down from my balcony and saw Daniel downstairs, in front of my door completely drenched in the rain looking at me as the heavy rain soaked his skin

********************************
